Whether you prefer a low or loud alarm volume to ensure you wake up, you can easily adjust the volume of your iPhone alarm. Here’s how to do it:
Adjust The Iphone Alarm Volume
You can adjust the alarm volume on your Iphone by following these steps:
- Launch the Settings app.
- Choose Sounds & Haptics.
- Adjust the slider under Ringer and Alerts to modify the alarm volume. Keep in mind that, as implied by the feature’s name, this adjustment will also impact the volume level of your iPhone ringtone, notifications, and other alerts.
If you prefer to adjust the alarm clock volume using the volume buttons on the side of your phone, you can enable the slider for Change with Buttons in the same Ringer and Alerts section.
Iphone Alarm Volume Too Low
The probable cause of your iPhone alarm being quiet is Apple’s Attention Aware features. This functionality has been present since the iPhone X series, and it determines whether you are actively using your iPhone. Attention Aware adjusts certain settings and can reduce the volume of specific alerts, including your alarm. Thankfully, disabling this setting is straightforward.

Once Sleep is configured, return to the Clock app. In the alarm section at the top, you’ll see your sleep schedule. Click “Change” > Scroll down until you find “Alarm Options.” From there, click “Sounds and Haptics.”
You can then choose from the provided wake-up alarms. All these alarms will start quietly and gradually increase in volume to wake you up gently. I hope this information is helpful!
